Is it supposed to work on Monterey?

It seems notifications are disabled by default.

Furthermore when I run alerter commands, my terminal is hanging, no return.

I'm having no trouble with Alerter on macOS 12.2 Monterey.

macOS should issue a notification on the first occasion you use a tool which tries to issue notifications. That first notification enables users to allow or disallow notifications from the tool concerned. It's a once-only thing. From then on, users need to open Notification preferences to make any desired changes. Maybe on the first time you used Alerter, you clicked on "Disallow" ?

Is Terminal hanging with Alerter notifications off ?

Hanging was also reported in issue #36.

I have never piped a message to Alerter. Does it hang Terminal when used directly ?

BTW, I wonder if the developer is going to do much more with Alerter. I haven't seen a contribution from vjeantet for a long time.

UPDATE: There is a problem in Monterey - see #47

I compiled from source ( 4fff738b7dde9deb1a5a75115d36f9249ea632cf ) because I didn't see a release for ARM. It just hangs for me on Monterey

if i run

 alerter -message "message"

it never alerts and never exits.

The first time i ran it macOS gave me the expected notification about it giving notifications and asking if i wanted them. I said yes. i have confirmed that it's 👍 still for sending notifications as far as the OS is concerned.

This is still an issue :(

@vjeantet any chance you could put this in the readme to advise new people that it's not supported on new versions of MacOS, please?

I was able to get it to work use what is mentioned here: https://github.com/vjeantet/alerter/issues/34#issuecomment-754446618
